My 10 Most Popular Posts This Year

Right, let’s go straight into my 10 most popular posts out of the 37 that I’ve shoved your way this year. And because I’m not the least bit ashamed, I’ll also let you know my least popular post at the end. Just for balance.

Oh, but first please let me say THANK YOU so much for reading my blog. I hope you have enjoyed it as much as I have enjoyed writing it and my blog would be nothing without you all. You’re all superstars!

This may have been even more popular if I hadn’t published it just as a Facebook post first of all. This post runs through everything you need to know if you either want to know what it’s like to be deaf or want to know what to consider if you’re spending time with someone who is hard of hearing. Ignorance is not bliss.

Another post that sadly a lot of people could relate to. Whilst it was quite devastating to hear other people’s experiences, it was in some way slightly comforting to know that I am clearly not alone with my experiences of sexual harassment. This post still regularly gets daily views.

Whilst this remains the hardest blog post that I’ve ever written, what is wonderful about this post being so popular is that so many of you lovely people read and heard about my wonderful friend. It helped make it the tribute that I wanted it to be. It would also be nice to think that it may have possibly helped someone somewhere.

I have enjoyed each and every one of these posts in the past year. You have a wonderful way of digging into tough issues and are truly thoughtful about connecting with readers. I always feel like you have a point of view, but aren’t ever being manipulative. It’s never “My way or the highway,” and always an invitation to conversation. Of course, it could be that I just agree with you–but I think it’s more than that. You’re just good. Happy 2017! And cheers to 2018!

Oh you really are a sweetheart! Thank you so much! Such kind words. I absolutely adore your blog too and I was only telling my husband about it last night. Keep up the good work and all the best for the new year xx

What a great idea! I just might have to post something similar, and, of course I’ll be crediting you, my lovely! I LOVED your scooter post. Just like Christine, I can’t see a kid on a scooter and not think of you 😂😂

I’ve seen quite a few of these type of posts and think it’s a great idea. Not only does it give new readers a chance to find extra material, it also helps us bloggers work out what readers enjoy the most! Fabulous x
